Paw-Paw and Nathan's 5th Annual National Parks Trip: Mammoth Cave






It all started in 2008 when Steve went TDY to Las Vegas and Nate and I joined him. Thinking ahead, I invited Paw-Paw to fly out to babysit so that Steve and I could go out. Paw-Paw was newly retired and up for an adventure, so he agreed to it. In addition to hanging out in Vegas, Paw-Paw planned a trip to the Hoover Dam and the Grand Canyon. It was on that trip that Paw-Paw realized just how awesome Nate was and we decided to continue this theme for years to come. It's 2012 and Paw-Paw and Nathan visited their fifth National Park together in Kentucky. He said this year was a "boys only" trip and he was sorry that Lady, Kathryn and I couldn't join them. What a thoughtful kid.
On the drive up to Kentucky they planned to spend a couple of days in Nashville. I decided to join them. I had a trip to Knoxville planned so I left early and tagged along with Paw-Paw and Nathan on their Nashville adventure.
